Jake MangerJake MangerFounder of HowToConvert.co $3857 revenue in 1 month

Jake Manger tweets that he earned about $5,886 AUD in April from HowToConvert.co, a website/app he launched the previous month 🚀

He writes


It does more than 3000 document, video, image and audio conversions locally.


Today I’m celebrating reaching over 800 paying users. I made everything from the logo and the code to the marketing.


What got me my most users was a launch post that reached the top 10 posts of all time on r/macapps (it’s now 14th).


He adds in the launch post 👇

There are plenty of file conversion sites, but when you use them, you’re sending your files and data to their servers. I didn’t like that and I wanted to use local tools but with a drag and drop app, so non-programmers could use it!

Great example of identifying an unsolved problem in a competitive niche, and building a profitable solution 💪

What popular apps or sites do you use?

What don’t you like about them?

Could you build and monetize a solution? 🤔
